David Ruffin – Statue Of A Fool lyrics
~Verse 1~
Somewhere there should be,
For all the world to see.
A statue of a fool made of stone.
An image of a man,
Who let love slip through his hands,
And then let him stand there all alone.
~Chorus~
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
~Verse 2~
And there on his face,
A gold tear should be placed,
To honor every tear he's shed
And I think it would show,
Then everyone would know,
Concealed inside is a broken heart.
~Chorus~
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
Mmhm...
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
Yeah,
And name it after me.
Somewhere there should be,
For all the world to see.
A statue of a fool made of stone.
An image of a man,
Who let love slip through his hands,
And then let him stand there all alone.
~Chorus~
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
~Verse 2~
And there on his face,
A gold tear should be placed,
To honor every tear he's shed
And I think it would show,
Then everyone would know,
Concealed inside is a broken heart.
~Chorus~
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
Mmhm...
So build a statue,
Oh, build it high.
So the world can see,
And inscribe the world's greatest fool,
And name it after me.
Yeah,
And name it after me.
